I personally don’t use Skype at all but after watching the video embedded below, I am thinking of giving it a try now. Cool stuff.

MSNBC reports that Skype RC build will be available to all users in April. If you can’t wait till April, do give beta a shot. From what I have read – the beta app is earning a lot of praises from all over the world. The application will only get better from here.
